I have a small home business network with one Win 2K one Win XP and one Red Hat 8.0 machine. The Linux box can connect and share the printer on the XP machine. However I can not connect to the Linux box from the Windows boxes. The error I get is "Path not Found". The Samba server appears in the Network Neighbour Hood but does not connect. There is a Linksys DSL Router acting as DHCP server thing. The names of the Windows boxes shows up on the DHCP list but the Linux box does not have a name. If this is the problem I have not been able to find the file where the Linux machine name resides. I have added it to /etc/hosts on both Windows and Linux boxes. My Global smb.conf file is included. Any ideas on how to get the two to talk.
